I’ll try and keep this short so I don’t bore you. There’s 3 relationships I need to deal with all at the same time and I’m not exactly sure how to keep them all and not ruin atleast one
Let’s go chronologically back before I even met her
The first friend (I’ll js call him A) entered into a “situationship” with the girl I like for a long time (I think in middle school) but and as far as I know (I don’t have the full story of it) she led A on which I feel really bad but it seemed like he moved on. I’m like pretty close with A which will be important in a sec
This was a while ago and now we get to this year. My school offers this retreat and me, this girl, A and my other friend (I’ll call B). Before this retreat I was close with A and talked to B a lil bit and really had no clue who the girl was. We go on this retreat and I got kinda close with the girl and (before this I’ve never really gone for a girl because I have severe body issues) she’s like the first girl I actually like and want to be in a relationship with. But on this retreat I got hit with some news that is throwing me for a loop. B told me in confidence that he likes this girl as well and obviously I wasn’t gonna tell him I had the same feelings so I js suppressed them. Originally I didn’t want to admit I liked her but it’s this feeling I get that I js can’t ignore.
Back to friend A, was put in the same group as his “ex” and honestly it looked like they were gettin along fine
Now we move to last weekend. Last weekend was our prom and a couple things happened. 1 I didn’t really see her around (nbd for me). 2 A was telling me how he doesn’t think B and the girls relationship will go anywhere. 3 I want B to succeed cuz he’s my boy right but I saw them talking and it js didn’t look like they were clicking all that much and A might be right. This gives me hope but makes me worried.
Now I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place. I like this girl and I want to ask her to hang out some time but I feel like it would make things awkward between me and A and would violate my relationship with B. With A I’m not as worried cuz it did seem like him and this girl left it on good terms. With B I don’t know what to do. From an outsiders perspective it doesn’t look like his relationship will go anywhere beyond friendship but I don’t wanted to be a dick and steal someone that I know he likes. Final note, she does like me as a friend but this whole thing, I was kinda being presumptuous and assuming that she wants the same thing I do, these are the problems that arise. So there’s all these problems and I js need help on what yall think the right thing to do it. Over the next couple weeks a bunch of us have finals so I think if I was to make my move, it would prolly be at the start of summer. So what do yall think I should do
